Keep on Cooking for Karina! [An Update]

Keep those submissions coming, folks! The food blog world is really showing Karina some love during this overwhelming time during which she's getting used to living with multiple food allergies. Bloggers from all over the world are creating recipes that avoid the allergens that make this fellow food blogger ill. There is still time to post a recipe (free of the foods Karina is allergic to) for inclusion in this blogging event! See my original post for the guidelines, including the list of foods to avoid. Please read them carefully. The deadline is Tuesday, July 10th. If you have your recipe posted and the link e-mailed to me by 11:59 PM EST, it will be included.

A Clarification: For people who've never participated in a blogging festival, here's a little more info: The goal here is for people to blog about recipes for Karina (i.e. to post the recipe on a publicly readable blog) and to send me the link to their blog post. I will then publish on my blog a list of these links with a little information about each. This is a great way to get some additional traffic for your blog. Recipes people e-mail me without a link to a blog post won't be included in the final roundup post. The only recipes included will be those that have been published on blogs and have had their links e-mailed to me at glutenfreebay (at) gmail.com

Non-Bloggers: Unfortunately, if you don't have a blog, you cannot participate in this event per se. However, you can feel free to e-mail me favorite recipes that fit the bill and I will gladly compile and forward them to Karina. I've been amazed at all the non-bloggers who've been sending me recipes and tips for dealing with multiple food allergies! They won't be published in the roundup post, but they will hopefully still bring more smiles to Karina's face.

Any questions? Ask 'em here!

Thanks to everyone for their support and participation. Pass the word on to your fellow food-blogging friends.
